  1. I would suggest centipede, it grows really well in full sun and even better with a little shade, but keep it watered.
  2. Turf Line Sun & Shade Grass Seed Mixture combines a blend of 2 types of Fine Fescues for shade tolerance and Sod Quality Kentucky Bluegrass for areas with full sun exposure. This mixture also contains a blend of Turf-Type Perennial Rye grasses for rapid germination and a smooth transition between sunny and shaded areas. Seeds are all improved varieties that will resist drought, insects and disease. Sun & Shade Mixture is packaged in 3 lb. and 10 lb. stay-fresh, re-closeable bags.
  3. Perennial grass seed is better than annual. Bluegrass/ rye mixture ad fescure for shady areas
